Summary

Beckman Elementary is a K-6 public school serving about 550 students in the Lodi Unified School District, consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of California elementary schools with a 1-star rating.

The school faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in English (25%), Math (22%), and especially Science (9.5%) well below district and state averages. Chronic absenteeism, while improved, remains higher than average at 25.3%. Performance varies notably among student groups, with male students and white students ranking particularly low, while the school shows relative strength in serving special education students. With over 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Beckman serves a high-needs population, and its per-student spending is slightly below some nearby schools.

Strikingly, Beckman's performance lags far behind other schools in the same district just miles away, such as high-performing Vinewood Elementary and mid-performing Ellerth E. Larson Elementary, suggesting factors beyond simple resources are at play. Despite these challenges, Beckman has shown recent signs of improvement, moving from the 12th to the 16th percentile statewide and making progress in reducing chronic absenteeism and supporting special education students.
